2024-04-25	My*****	To use the app, you need to get verified. To get verified, you need to provide everything but your first born child. LinkedIn, instagram, and X profiles. Why do you need my entire social media presence and what is the app doing with all that data? Even after all that, still waitlisted. A huge waste of time.

2024-02-24	An*****	I registered for the app about 3 weeks ago and have been on the waitlist ever since (# 16,205 on the waitlist). How much longer will I be on the waitlist before being able to experience the app?

2021-03-08	jv*****	I want to know why it takes to longtime on waiting list, do you think people will wait for weeks, checking every day, and you can’t access anything, can’t even see where to ask, i think maybe the admin of this app is not working

2020-04-04	Qu*****	I love that the app allows you to find searches by African countries and it easy to use. Most dating apps make you fill out too many questions but this minimizes it while focusing on the qualities you want in a significant other. Give it a try and see for yourself!
